BURN ONE UP! MUSIC FOR STONERS

This is probably the first and fundamental Stoner Rock compilations, released in 1997 by Roadrunner Records and presenting many of the most important stoner bands of the first era.

Track list:

01. Queens of the Stone Age - 18 A.D.

02. Karma to Burn - Ma Petit Mort

03. Fu Manchu - Asphalt 'Risin

04. The Heads - GNU

05. Spiritual Beggars - Monster Astronauts

06. Floodgate - Feel You Burn

07. Slaprocket - Holy Mother Sunshine

08. Leadfoot - Soul Full of Lies

09. Celestial Season - Wallaroo

10. Cathedral - You Know

11. Acrimony - Bud Song

12. Blind Dog - Lose

13. Sleep - Aquarian

14. Hideous Sun Demons - Icarus Dream

15. Beaver - Green

My favourite songs in this selection are 18 A.D., a Q.O.T.S.A.'s track available only in this release, Monster Astronauts by Spiritual Beggars, Acquarian by Sleep and Bud Song from the Acrimony, but I have to say that every single second of this compilation needs to be listened!

As many others of these compilation is out of print and never reprinted, I think. It's possible to find some used copies on ebay or similiar sites. Actually on ebay there are some copies from 4 euro to more than 20 euro

No MP3 or links

Here I'm trying just to put together a good catalogue of stoner compilations. I don't post links to illegal file sharing. I suggest you to find out the original copies of these works, even if they are sometimes very difficoult to find!
